Frequently Asked Questions

Expertly blended in the UK. Unbeatable longevity. No designer markups.

Very close - close enough that Metro said: "We seriously couldn't tell the difference between this and the real deal."

We build each fragrance around the same scent profile as the original: the same opening notes, the same dry down, the same character.

We're not affiliated with the designer brands we reference, but we list our inspirations clearly on every product so you know exactly what you're getting before you order.

Every fragrance in our range is a true Eau De Parfum, formulated with high-quality fragrance oils. If you want stronger projection or longer wear, our Intense range uses an even higher oil concentration — you'll notice the difference in the first hour on skin.

Most of our fragrances last 8–12 hours, though this varies depending on your skin type, how you apply it, and the environment.

Dry skin tends to absorb fragrance faster - if that's you, applying to pulse points right after a shower (when pores are open) makes a noticeable difference. Our Intense range is formulated for stronger projection and longer wear if longevity is your priority.

Designer prices cover a lot more than what's inside the bottle - celebrity campaigns, luxury retail margins, and packaging that costs more to produce than the fragrance itself.

We skip all of that. Every pound goes into the formula: high-quality fragrance oils, UK manufacturing, and getting the scent right. That's why a 100ml bottle costs £24.99 instead of £120 or more.

Yes. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all orders.

We know buying fragrance online carries some risk - you can't smell it before it arrives. So give it a few wears, see how it settles on your skin, and if it's not right for you, return the bottle for a full refund. No awkward questions.

Yes, absolutely!

One of the more frustrating things about expensive fragrance is rationing it - saving the bottle for occasions that feel worthy of the price. At £4.99 a bottle, that calculation disappears. Wear what you like, when you like, without thinking twice about it.

Yes. Every product we make is 100% vegan - no animal-derived ingredients - and cruelty-free at every stage of production.

Presence. Our core range is an Eau de Parfum blended at 20-25% fragrance oil, which gives most people 6 to 8 hours of wear. The Intense Collection is built to last longer, project further and carry deeper base notes, with 8 hours or more typical on skin.

Intense starts at £7.95 against £4.99 for the core range, so it comes down to how much the extra wear and presence matter to you.

Intense versions are available for most of our popular scents. Look for the black Intense label on the product page.

That's more common than you'd think. Two options depending on how you want to approach it.

Our Scent Finder Quiz asks about your occasions and the kinds of scents you already like, then recommends profiles that suit you — good if you want a quick steer.

If you'd rather try before you commit, our Discovery Set is the better route: 20 x 5ml samples for £44.99 (down from £100), available in For Him, For Her, or Unisex. Once you've found your favourites, you get an exclusive 20% discount code to put towards a 3x100ml bundle - bringing it down to £35.99 - that's £12 per 100ml bottle!

UK orders arrive in 2–3 business days with standard delivery, or 1–2 business days with express via Royal Mail. You'll get a tracking number by email as soon as your order is dispatched.

We also ship to Ireland, the EU, and the US — delivery times and costs vary by country and are shown at checkout.

The Essence Vault Guarantee

At The Essence Vault, we believe in fragrances that make you feel amazing. That's why we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee—so you can shop with confidence.

If you're not completely in love with your scent, simply return it within 30 days for a full refund. No hassle, no stress—just a promise that you'll find a fragrance you truly adore.

Was very excited to get this scent, the original is so very expensive so when I saw The Essence Vault had it, I had to purchase, got the small one to begin with just to make sure it smelt the same, and my god it does, exact same, so happy and once this has gone I will be purchasing the 100ml, I love it and it’s lasts all day, very happy indeed 😁

Beautiful perfumes, just think delivery could be a little quicker.

Kyrenia B. 5/5 Verified

Arrived less than 24 hours after I ordered (which was on a Friday by the way) and I was absolutely blown away by just how much this actually was identical to the Carolina herrera “la bomba” perfume! I’ve had the real designer fragrance and I honestly wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. The scent actually lasts longer than the “real” stuff. I could still smell it on myself after a bath and on my jumper after it had been through the washing machine. Will deffo be ordering again and won’t pay the silly prices for the designer ones now :)

Hannah N. 5/5 Verified

I waited so long for The Essence Vault to come out with this fragrance and was so worried it wouldn’t last aslong as the original but OMG I wasn’t disappointed everyone that comes into contact with me comments on this scent, I’ve been in the supermarket and people have asked what I’m wearing, I always say what it’s ment to be then drop in that it’s an inspired fragrance from The Essence Vault, I always keep a bottle on me to show and they always ask to take a picture

Ik ga zeker nog weleens bestellen bij jullie, de parfum is goed. Maar wil niet steeds eraan herinnerd worden. Teveel spam.

This perfume is gorgeous. Only half way down the bottle but have repurchased as I can't face running out. So many people have complimented me when wearing this and at least 3 friends have been on to purchase it after me revealing what it was. Really does smell divine.
